No, I don't mean any of us here at BS. I'm referring to my old friend Mark Schlabach of ESPN.com.Mark has decided to do another of his completely meaningless, rambling, incoherent, inconclusive, random lists... and this time, he's listing the ten easiest schedules in the nation. Does this mean these teams should go 12-0? Who knows? I don't think it does, because judging by the top two easiest schedules, that would be one hell of a prediction.
Iowa is the number 1 easiest, followed by IU at the second easiest, according to the knuckle-dragging Schlabach.
Ohhhhhhh, I see. This is yet another shot at the Big Ten, only this time it's cleverly veiled since saying "Sorry everyone, OSU might make it back to the title game" was beginning to get a bit tired even for hacks like Schlabach.
Okay, I gotcha. And I see the Big Ten has the top two easiest schedules in the nation. Yes, yes, definitely see your point there, Mark. It's not like they play in a tough conference at all or play a schedule as hard as, say, Arkansas State or Idaho or whomever. Yeah, the Big Ten definitely deserves to coninue to have shots taken at it.
Mark Schlabach, you sir, continue to be a fool.

Now that ESPN has signed a bigger deal with the SEC than NBC did with Notre Dame, it is now part of his job description to downgrade and denigrate the Big Ten at least once in every column.
Luckily, the BTN is finally making it to all the cable networks (I'm getting it on Verizon in Sept). It's our only hope as we look at a long dark 15 year SEC contract.
BTN is making it to cable...but. Here in Chicago, Comcast is offering zero overflow stations, so on Saturday, when there are 5 games starting at 11AM, we will be able to see only one of them. Which one? Care to guess? That's right, OSU vs Youngstown State. We won't be able to see any of the games from the neighboring states, the games that most Chicagoans are actually interested in.
Somehow, I don't see SEC fans getting screwed over by the cable companies like we are.
The word "dumbass" was in your title. I just KNEW that the word "Iowa" would be in your post somewhere.
